I used to want top back but now do we really want Top with cards like Citadel // Mystic Forge etc.

I know you're being rhetorical but I got bored and curious which ones I could think of-
Sower
Diminishing Returns
Misthollow Griffin
Slithermuse
Mindbreak Trap

Brainstorm is the best card in the format by a mile, god forbid theres a card like chalice to help fight those decks. Nothing is stopping you from playing a 2nd land into a 2 drop or 3rd land into a...
I'm 99% sure he was making a 'subtle' jab at the argument made for Goblin Recruiter being banned
There are better blade decks than esper that don't play blue, DnT for example (Id argue maverick is more consistent than it)
How about the reverse though, Reanimator dropped blue and its cantrips...
Ancestral is obviously better than Brainstorm most of the time, but it's not -strictly- better because there are times where a Brainstorm lets you do something that Ancestral can't like set up an...
Bloodmoon still hurts 4c, DRS is a lot worse than a bird under a moon. It's just that it absolutely cripples the decks they bring it in against so it's worth it. That's like saying "Wow this deck...
Apparently DRS is lucksack but the miracle mechanic and counterbalance are not ???
Both of these as well as most decks have brain dead plays, but that doesn't mean they can't be hard to play at...
3 copies of Maverick in top 16 of recent legeacy classic (2 top 8) , it just Top 8 the GP, and very few people play the deck. Deck is obviously past it's prime and just bad now, ban DRS as it only...
Im usually all down to complain about 1 mana instant speed Hallowed burial but come on. Teeg plus mom is still good, it'd be lame if they were just dead to it, they had karakas before and they have...
Bias here but just wanna say I don't understand people being down on maverick, it's pretty solid. I'm confidant the main reason it doesn't put up too many results is because hardly anyone plays it...
I'm sick of penguins being tier 2, they should have flying!!!
I think play-wise Survival is -probably- fine. I know price shouldn't really be a factor but the card is already really expensive and on the reserved list, and if you thought cards like Land Tax...
On DRS - It always seemed silly to me that Jund with drs is almost unplayable and one of the best decks in the format is blue jund and people can turn and say 'yah drs is the problem that needs to go...
I can see where you're coming from tbh, I started playing Dark Depths again in my deck so I don't have to deal with all this TNN stuff.
You win this race so hard, unless you're at such a lower life total you can just replace TNN with like ... bolt bolt?
The sad thing is I'd probably still try to play Knight of the Reliquary with fetches gone :( #4canopy4wasteland
yes unbanning 4 mana fair cards that shouldn't be on the ban list = destroying the format as a cash grab.
All this maverick hate :(. The deck isn't that bad, very few people play it though.
I'm not really bothered by True Name. Sure TNN brick walling Knight is annoying but if it has to stay back and...
TNN would've been cooler in multiplayer if it had protection from everyone but the chosen opponent. Just pick some guy playing mono green ramp and go to town with your creature no one can target....
I've though of something like that, but I'd rather DRS be the same card but only castable off G and only produce G/B (or maybe Jund if it was printed in a set that supported Jund) that way the...
To be fair I find that having DRS in the main accompanied by things like surgical postboard against lands/dredge/etc. is a lot more interactive and fun of a match than getting dumpstered game 1 with...
What do you think is going to happen with a DRS ban? The format is still going to be dominated by blue decks with the occasional lands/dnt, etc. Pretty much the same format now, maybe RUG delver...
^ "you cant have just one" is lays not pringles. Smh.
Real talk format is great right now, plz no bans :(
Different cards require different skillsets, chalice players need to build a deck that can actually win without playing 1 drops. They also need to play well to win matchups Chalice is bad. Obviously...
